Building a custom module

[Baiazid]

Hi, i am using 1.3.8a

I am building a new module:

filename: moto_detail_auspost.php
class name: moto_detail_auspost

constructor is initializing the MODULE_SHIPPING_AUSPOST_TEXT_TITLE, MODULE_SHIPPING_AUSPOST_TEXT_DESCRIPTION, MODULE_SHIPPING_AUSPOST_SORT_ORDER, MODULE_SHIPPING_AUSPOST_TAX_CLASS and MODULE_SHIPPING_AUSPOST_TAX_BASIS

return true

function quote is returning $this->quotes; which is correctly filled

function check() returns True like in DB

function install and remove looks OK

Price calculation is good but on checkout process i am stuck on Step 1 of 3 - Delivery Information. If i choose FLAT rate or something else, is moving to step 2.

Class/Zone rates are identical.

What is the problem?

Fixed:

in /modules/pages/checkout_shipping/header_php.php:

139: list($module, $method) = explode('_', $_SESSION['shipping']);

My module was named moto_detail_auspost. I had to remove the "_" from module class name to work properly.

But to find this... I've spent a few hours with various debug techniques to see variables and....

Tnx,

i've been using:

function logMe($var)
{

$filename = 'log.txt';
if (!$handle = fopen($filename, 'a')) {
echo "Cannot open file ($filename)";
return;
}
$toSave = var_export($var, true);
fwrite($handle, "[" . date("y-m-d H:i:s") . "]");
fwrite($handle, "\n");
fwrite($handle, $toSave);
fwrite($handle, "\n");
fclose($handle);
}

Is not mine, but a good tool to debug!

The output is something like:

[09-06-11 20:49:40]

array (
'id' => 'motodetailauspost',
'module' => 'Australia Post',

array (
'id' => 'motodetailauspost',
'title' => 'Registed post parcel >>>',
'cost' => 5.4,
),
),
),
)
